The Goddess Granted Me the [Hatching] Skill and Somehow I Became the Strongest Tamer, Commanding Mythical and Divine Beasts - Chapter 131: Confidential Meeting

Chapter 131: Confidential Meeting

Two weeks had passed since I made Neige my familiar.

At first, I worried that relations among the familiars in the mansion would get even messier, but Neige had a gentle personality and was obedient even toward Feni, so no problems came up.

Now, everyone treated Neige like a little brother to Feni and Purple, and the other familiars cherished it too.

Things were going smoothly like that, but right now, I rode in the Boyle Count family’s carriage toward the royal castle.

“You don’t need to be that tense.”

Douglas sat across from me, looking my way.

Neige yawned on my lap and demanded a head pat.

“Even so, I can’t get used to this no matter how many times I do it.”

The reason was that King Kings IV wanted to hear about me making a divine dragon my familiar.

When I showed my tension, Douglas let out a sigh.

“Because you ditched your duties and went home, I had to go through a lot of trouble, you know?”

“Urgh… I’m sorry.”

This time, thanks to Douglas keeping a lid on the news about making Neige my familiar, it had not spread.

The reason was that making a divine dragon a familiar was unprecedented, and if word got out to other countries, who knew what kind of impact it would have.

“I also heard from my granddaughter that you already gave the White Dragon a name.”

It seemed Charlotte had told him everything. Douglas was my guardian, and considering how he actually moved to help, I had to say her judgment was right.

“But even compared to any hero in the world, your accomplishments are no less impressive, Klaus.”

“No… haha.”

Even if he said that, I could only manage an awkward smile.

Back then, I was fully focused on saving the life in front of me and never thought it would turn out like this.

“But still, it seems like there’s something to that island after all.”

Douglas put a hand to his chin and thought.

“Do you know that the first head of the Boyle family, Rint, found a Red Dragon’s egg on that island?”

“Yes, more or less.”

Negrei had told everyone about it when we first landed on the island, so I heard.

Neige and Scarlet and even Squarl came from that island, and given how other monsters warmed up easily too, I agreed.

If I got another chance to talk with Goddess Muse, I might ask her about it.

“It looks like we’re entering the royal castle now.”

The carriage slowed, so I knew we had passed the castle gate.

“Kyupi?”

“It’s okay.”

Neige reacted, lifted its head, and looked around curiously.

“This carriage can stop right inside the building with the meeting room. That way, no one will see that White Dragon.”

That was one reason Douglas came to pick me up at home. Though I had things I wanted to ask too…

When the carriage stopped, we headed to that meeting room.
